Emily Dickinson
|
|
|
One of Emily Dickinson’s poems, formally titled "The feet of people walking home," is of some interest in its own merit. Unlike some of Dickinson’s other poems, such as the ones that exist among other versions due to a few dissimilarities, this poem is duplicated verbatim. To the untrained eye, this triviality would often be overlooked, were it not for the fact that Emily Dickinson had not intended on publishing many of her poems. ... Perhaps a more in-depth analysis of the poem, as well as the current events in Dickinson’s life, would answer this query. ... A much more somber note pervades the second stanza, in which Dickinson uses metaphors to compare the entrance to heaven with the act of theft. ... Dickinson uses the words "gayer," "hallelujah," and "singing" to emphasize the uplifting feeling here. ... Much like Dickinson’s other poems, this one uses metaphors to represent similar things, such as "home," which represents "heaven," "snow," which represents the "clouds" on which heaven resides, and "vassals," which represents the "angels" who serve God.
